Meet Our Staff

Since October 1998

I started my career as a sales associate with Ron Tonkin Acura in 1998. Next, I was promoted to the finance department, New Car Sales Manager, General Sales Manager now I enjoy my role as the General Manager.

I enjoy spending time with my family and friends. In my spare time I play basketball, golf and cycling.

I look forward to many great years here at Ron Tonkin Acura “The Home of The Happy Motorist!”

Since July 2008

I began my career with Ron Tonkin Acura in July of 2008. I started as a sales consultant and was promoted to internet sales in 2010.  After a successful 7 years in internet sales I moved into the Finance department.  Spending 2 years in finance taught me so much that I then moved to Sales Manager and then New Car Sales Manager.

Prior to working for Ron Tonkin Acura, I worked 13 wonderful years for Nordstrom. I sold in various departments before landing a manager position in women’s and men’s fragrances. This position taught me how to build relationships with the many of our fragrance vendors and diverse clients while balancing a steady and consistent sales volume. In 2006, I won Fragrance Counter Manager of the year and in 2007, I won the President’s Cup.

The Tonkin Family of Dealerships has the same culture and reputation of Nordstrom. The transition has been one of the easiest, as the clients are our top priority and customer service is #1. I am proud to contribute to the Precision Team award honored to our dealership 25 times. When I’m not at the dealership you will find me enjoying time with my family. I have a 6-year-old daughter, a 13-year-old daughter and a 15-year-old son. We enjoy boating and camping in the summer and entertaining family and friends in the winter.

My goal with every client is to give them the best experience and to make them feel like family. I want all my clients to call me if there is every anything they need with their vehicle.

Please contact me if you would like a vehicle consultation!

Since March 2003

I started with Ron Tonkin Acura in March 2003. I grew up in the Midwest in a rural town with a population of 2000 people where tradition and values run deep.  As an employee of the Tonkin Family of Dealerships, I find it a very comfortable and easy fit due to the very strong customer service based atmosphere they created.

I still very much enjoy the feel of small-town life and recently purchased a house in North Plains, OR. If you don’t find me at home or here at the dealership, I’m more than likely enjoying the outdoors or touring Oregon on my motorcycle.

Since May 2003

Since April 2006

My first experience with Ron Tonkin Acura was as a customer–I purchased a vehicle at the dealership! At that time, I was working for a major competitor. However, my purchase experience at Ron Tonkin Acura was so amazing that I decided to join the team–that was 19 years ago.

I have been Salesperson of The Month 35 times during my tenure at Ron Tonkin Acura. I am also very proud of my dedication to customer satisfaction.

As an Oregon State Beaver, I was fortunate to play on the OSU basketball team during the tenure of the legendary Ralph Miller. Needless to say, but I enjoy playing basketball in my spare time.

Hi, I’m Ethan! I’m an Oregon State University graduate and lifelong car enthusiast who genuinely enjoys helping people find the right vehicle. My goal is to make the buying process straightforward, comfortable, and enjoyable by listening to what matters most to you and providing honest, pressure-free guidance. Outside of work, I enjoy working on my own project cars, attending automotive events, and learning more about the finance side of the industry. Whether you know exactly what you want or are just beginning your search, I’m here to make the experience easy from your first test drive to the moment you drive home.

With over 23 years of experience in the automotive industry, I bring a well-rounded background in automotive sales, dealership operations, and leadership. Throughout my career, I have held a variety of key positions, including Sales Consultant, Internet Director, Finance Director, Sales Manager, CPO/Used Car Manager, and General Sales Manager (GSM).

My diverse experience has given me an in-depth understanding of virtually every aspect of dealership operations, from customer relationship development and digital sales strategies to finance, inventory management, team development, and overall dealership performance.

One of my greatest strengths is my ability to connect with and build relationships with people from all walks of life. I genuinely enjoy working with different personalities and backgrounds and believe that treating people with honesty, respect, and integrity is the foundation of any successful relationship.

I also take great pride in my attention to detail, organization, and follow-through. I believe that staying organized, keeping commitments, and consistently following through are essential to both personal and professional success.

I truly enjoy being part of the team at Ron Tonkin Acura for many reasons. What I appreciate most is the culture of honesty and respect, both in the way we treat our customers and in the way management treats its employees. Having a management team with more than 20 years of tenure is something special in today’s automotive industry. That kind of longevity speaks volumes about the people, leadership, and culture of an organization, and it is something I genuinely value.

Hi, I’m Xander, your Product Specialist at Ron Tonkin Acura in Beaverton!

As a Yamhill County native, I’m proud to help drivers in my community find the right vehicle for their lifestyle. When I’m not helping customers, you can usually find me finding new ways to tire out my two dogs, playing board games, or competing on the ping pong courts.

My goal is to make your car buying experience easy, enjoyable, and completely pressure free. I’ll take the time to understand what matters most to you, walk you through the features you’ll love, and provide honest answers every step of the way.

Whether you’re just starting your search or ready to find your next vehicle, I’m here to make the process as smooth and stress free as possible.

I look forward to meeting you and helping you find your next vehicle!
